The '''International Ad Hoc Committee''' ('''[[IAHC]]''') was formed in 1996 by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority ([[IANA]]) and Internet Society ([[ISOC]]). During this period, commercial restrictions on the web were lifted by the National Science Foundation (NSF), which resulted in the Internet's first major explosion of commercial growth and the number of computers on the Internet doubling every three months. IAHC was a temporary alliance brought together to focus on the issue of managing the [[DNS|Domain Name System]] so that it could serve the rising number of computers effectively. The committee was made up of several organizations: IANA, ISOC, the Internet Architecture Board ([[IAB]]), the International Telecommunications Union ([[ITU]]), Federal Networking Council (FNC), International Trademark Association (INTA), and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). The IAHC was dissolved on May 1, 1997 in favor of the Generic Top Level Domain Memorandum of Understanding (gTLD-MoU).
